WhyteDwarf Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 Clay is the #1 reason I get scared of the Bills spending ~80 million in the offseason. Good friggin luck with FA's. 1

Its make or break for him and McDermott next season. As a GM, building through the draft won't do ***** for you if your team sucks and your gone after three years. when you say aggressive you're talking about overpaying right? I feel they'll need to overpay for guys like Paradise and Anthony Barr...but I'm ok with it because they really need to upgrade the o-line

I don't think Beane or Pegula read this message board enough to know that this regime has FIVE YEARS to figure it out. Beane will be ALL IN this offseason. 2019 is make or break.

It does take time to develope a TE. I cant help but be reminded of all the guys that wanted Oleary gone. I wonder if they are the ones b!+*?ing now.
FearLess Price Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 4 hours ago, Boyst62 said: He was neglected his first season and misused his second 2 seasons Agree. Clay is decent and can take over games with the right oc and run game. In 2015 they only used him well in like 3 games. By 2016 and 2017 Clay was drawing the most coverage overall between an often injuried watkins, woods, benjamin, drop zone jones, and a random deonte Thompson. Clay drops a pass every 6 or 10 targets but hell make the big play more often than not. He mightve lost a step but he isnt bad. Take ur Bills blinders off, hes also a much better blocker then any te we have too.

Croom and O’Leary would have been better then any of Clay this season Croom makes critical mistakes fumbling the football. He completely spun the momentum back to NE when we could have closed in on a tie or one point game. It's a major issue that has happened twice so far. We need a legit #1 TE.
Buffalo Barbarian Posted December 23, 2018 Posted December 23, 2018 Just release him now, get the bums out.

vincec Posted December 24, 2018 Posted December 24, 2018 Wait until we see who his replacement is before celebrating. Bills have a habit of dumping players with no plan for how to replace them.

Thomas is not good. Croom can't block. The position needs a complete overhaul. Croom is awful- nice fumble today also! 4 minutes ago, vincec said: Wait until we see who his replacement is before celebrating.

And looks just as good a receiver to me. They haven't shown anything special. But hey, cut him and wing it. Maybe they'll find someone better or maybe someone will step up. Otherwise it'll be another downgrade.

We did squat on offense. He had what, 1 catch and fumbled? Great player he is indeed. Cant wait to see more of him next year- im excited.

Draft a guy somewhere. Thomas is not good. Croom can't block. The position needs a complete overhaul. Jesse James would be a fantastic addition. Can block and catch. Does not see many opportunities this year given the Steelers bevy of pass catchers and the fact that McDonald is basically a WR playing TE. James and Croom would be a great duo. Also, would allow us to draft OT, etc.
OldTimeAFLGuy Posted December 24, 2018 Posted December 24, 2018 "Bills TE Charles Clay is a healthy scratch for Week 16 against the Patriots. " ....should "Clay" and "healthy" actually be used in the SAME sentence??.....

Healthy scratch for the Pats game is interesting. What I don't understand is why make him a healthy scratch if they are going to release him. I can see the validity of their action if they wanted to trade him.

Dropping a potentially game winning pass. Sad. I agree with someone here who said a big part of why Clay wasn't able to get back towards that pass is that his knees are so shot.
Doc Brown Posted December 26, 2018 Posted December 26, 2018 Shoot. Was hoping we could swing a trade with him for Ertz.
